The blood swallow is mainly produced in Roland Rock Mountain, Kangshi Mountain, Songka Mountain and other places in Thailand, which is not like the legend formed by the blood vomited by swallows. According to the information, the quality of the blood swallow is actually inferior to that of the white bird's nest, and its aroma and hair-soaking ingredients are not as good as the white bird's nest. it is only because the blood swallow has become more popular in recent years.

How is it formed?

1. The swiftlet eats food such as seaside algae, mountain insects and flying ants, so its saliva contains more minerals, and the bird's nest is easy to oxidize into red.

2. The minerals contained in the rock wall slowly seep into the nest through the contact surface between the nest and the rock wall, and the natural mineral water in the cave drips into the bird's nest, resulting in a change in color.

3. The air inside the cave is very stuffy. The deeper the cave is, the hotter it is. The bird's nest containing minerals is oxidized by the muggy air and changes to a grayish red or clear red color. According to people who have climbed Bird's Wo Mountain, the nests outside the cave are all pearl white. the more you go inside, the bird's nest on the rock wall begins to be pearl yellow, orange (Huang Yan), and then reaches the deepest and hottest cave. Only then can I see the orange bird's nest. Note that it is not bright red, but orange or grayish red. Now the bright red blood swallows on the market are all smoked out. The natural blood swallow is not so bright red and is reddish brown when dried, and it also has the unique fishy smell of swiftlets (hundreds of thousands of caves that produce bird's nests, and only a few caves in Sabah).
